Bee-Tox -- It's a Real Thing!

Last year, I got stung in the forehead, and immediately, my skin swelled, eliminating any lines I might have. Jokingly, I referred to the incident as "bee-tox." Imagine my surprise when I found out this morning that bee-venom masks actually exists and are used by royalty such as Kate Middleton and Duchess Camilla! Oh, you know I couldn't leave that alone!

A couple minutes on Google revealed that there are quite a few companies that sell beauty creams chock full of venom, including.

I thought I was being funny last year when I referred to my "beetox" treatment -- who knew it was a real thing?! So what do you think? Next time I visit the hives, should I leave my veil in the house? :-)

Before going on our belated honeymoon my wife and I dropped off my daughter at my wife's folks. Her dad has some mean bees, really mean... b's. Just as we were about to leave one stung my wife just under her eye. She was very worried it would cause a reaction and that at a result she wouldn't to go out and about whilst we were away. In fact it beautifully smoothed out the wrink.... I mean laughter lines. The only problem now was one side of her face looked younger than the other!
